Contributing
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
We target the latest stable version of the Godot Engine for development until a
|
|
third beta or a release candidate of an upcoming Godot release becomes available.
|
|
If you want to contribute to the project, please ensure that you are using the
|
|
corresponding Godot version.
|
|
|
|
We follow the `Godot code style guidelines <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/code_style_guidelines.html#doc-code-style-guidelines>`_.
|
|
Please use ``clang-format`` to maintain consistent styling. You can install
|
|
``pre-commit`` hooks for Git using ``pre-commit install`` to automate this process.
|
|
|
|
Please keep the minor versions backward-compatible when submitting pull requests.
|
|
|
|
We support building LimboAI as a module for the Godot Engine and as a GDExtension library.
|
|
Make sure your contribution is compatible with both. Our CI workflow will verify
|
|
that your changes can be compiled in both configurations.
|
|
|
|
Compiling as module of the Godot Engine
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the Godot Engine repository.
|
|
2. Switch to the latest stable tag.
|
|
3. Clone the LimboAI repository into the ``modules/limboai`` directory.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/godotengine/godot.git
|
|
git checkout 4.3-stable # Replace "4.3-stable" with the latest stable tag
|
|
git clone https://github.com/limbonaut/limboai modules/limboai
|
|
|
|
Consult the `Godot Engine documentation <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/compiling/index.html>`_
|
|
for detailed instructions on building the engine.
|
|
|
|
**Unit tests** can be compiled using the ``tests=yes`` build option. To execute them,
|
|
run the compiled Godot binary with the ``--test --tc="*[LimboAI]*"`` command-line options.
|
|
|
|
Compiling as GDExtension library
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You'll need the SCons build tool and a C++ compiler. See also `Compiling <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/contributing/development/compiling/index.html>`_.
|
|
Run ``scons target=editor`` to build the plugin library for your current platform.
|
|
|
|
- SCons will automatically clone the ``godot-cpp`` repository if it doesn't already exist in the ``limboai/godot-cpp`` directory.
|
|
- By default, built targets are placed in the demo project: ``demo/addons/limboai/bin/``.
|
|
|
|
Check ``scons -h`` for other options and targets.
|
|
|
|
Contributing to the documentation
|
|
---------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Online documentation is created using `Sphinx <https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/>`_.
|
|
Source files are located in the ``doc/source`` directory in RST format and can
|
|
be built locally with ``sphinx-build``. See the
|
|
`Sphinx documentation <https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/tutorial/getting-started.html>`_
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
Class documentation resides in XML files within the ``doc_classes/`` directory.
|
|
If you create a new class or modify an existing one, you can run the compiled
|
|
Godot binary with the ``--doctool`` option in the root of the Godot source code
|
|
to generate the missing XML files or sections within those files in the class documentation.
|
|
After editing the XML files, please run the compiled editor binary with the ``--doctool``
|
|
option again to update and tidy up the XML files.
|
|
|
|
Sphinx RST files for the class documentation are generated from
|
|
XML files using the Godot script ``make_rst.py`` and stored in the ``doc/source/classes`` directory.
|
|
This process is performed using our own script ``gdextension/update_rst.sh``. RST files
|
|
in ``doc/source/classes`` should not be edited manually.
